Summary of Field Work: |
ocean profiling on station in the central Indian Ocean
atmospheric measurements:
C-band radar,W-band radar, lidar, meteorology, flux mast |
|
Summary of Facility Requirements: |
A Global Class vessel is required t o house the combined radar/lidar array. |
|
Summary of other requirements and comments: |
DYNAMO is the US component of a larger international experiment. This will require a certain amount of coordination in terms of experiment timing (fall 2011). This is detailed in the DYNAMO experiment plan. The DYNAMO experiment plan and science overviews will be submitted January 2010. |

Repeating Cruise?
(within same year) |
Yes |
Interval: |
4 |
# of Cruises: |
2 |
|
|
Description of Repeating cruise requirements: |
The DYNAMO plan includes 4 legs
mooring deployment / 15d (Lien)
Station Leg 1 / 40d (Moum / Fairall)
Station Leg 2 / 35d (Moum / Fairall)
mooring recovery / 19d (Lien)
These cruises will be sequential on a single vessel. The middle 2 Station Legs will be identical operations to the same location (0, 80E). |
Justification/Explanation for ship choice, dates,
conflicts, number of days & multi-ship operations: |
We are requesting joint funding for mutliple legs from ONR (Moum), NSF (Lien, Moum), NOAA (Fairall) .
Revelle in particular is requested because of its superior Doppler sonar. |

Explanation of Science Party Requirements and Technician Requirements |
Sci party will install radars. lidars with tech help. Support winches for turbulence profiler will be installed in fantail. Once underway, Sci party will be responsible for 24 h ops.
Tech help will be needed in setting up Pinkel's Doppler sonar. |
